End to End – The London Apron Collection
If there's one good thing to come out of these crazy times it's The Uniform Studio's newest addition to its online collection, The London Apron.
Hailing from the desire (and subsequent need thanks to the pandemic) to create a 100% British piece, the apron is not only wholly British but is bone fide London born and bred. East London to be precise.
Produced from beautiful canvases carefully selected from a traditional but established mill, the apron features a selection of natural 100% webbing straps with a leather mix. Sourced from a workshop in the heart of the East End, the leather and all the accompanying trims are native Londoners and proud of it!
With factories based predominantly in London, The Uniform Studio has been able to utilise specific techniques on this apron's journey, enabling it to enjoy a long and characterful life. However, all good things must come to an end and, once the apron has completed its final shift in the workplace, it can be deconstructed and re used in whichever way its new owner sees fit. Designed to be fully functional for life, the apron will refuse to be put out to pasture, preferring the excitement and anticipation of a new existence elsewhere.
The London Apron is available in a range of colourways and will be launching on The Shop late November. Competitively priced, it will enhance any place of work with its stunning, premium finish and beautiful design. Its reinforced stitching and mitred edges will allow the apron to hold its form and retain its robust yet relaxed appearance, looking like new every time it's worn.
The Uniform Studio designer, Lois Hill, comments "This collection is particularly special as we've been able to reduce our carbon footprint which is incredibly important to us. Utilising UK suppliers across the board is a step further on the environmental journey and one which we are extremely proud to have taken.
'I created The London Apron with the wearer in mind; comfort and functionality being at the forefront but style, durability and carbon footprint also key. I'm looking forward to launching the whole collection as I'm hoping it'll inject an extra splash of pride to the workplace – we all need something to feel good about at the moment don't we!'
